Welcome to Zak’s Virtual Sleep Shop!

Back sleepers know how they like to sleep. Lying flat on the back spreads out pressure points across the body and allows the spine to straighten out. Experts recommend a Medium-Firm mattresses, this allows some give that will support the lower back area to prevent back pain.

Side sleepers each have a way of curling or not curling up on their side. The shoulders, hips, and knees are three major pressure points in this position. A Plush or Ultra Plush mattress will help spine alignment as well as relieve pressure points by supporting the gaps between them.

Stomach sleepers seem like they haven’t a care in the world. A Firm mattress is recommended for these folks. Minimal give relieves pressure on the knees and prevents the lower back from sagging into the mattress and causing back pain.

Moving between positions in search of the perfect pose is quite common. Look toward the middle of the firmness scale. A transitional layer is recommended between the top and the base layers. This provides give at the top for side sleeping but not too much give for stomach sleeping.
